STANDARD DAWG POUND TIRE WARRANTY
All Dawg Pound®Tires are guaranteed to be free from defects due to materials or workmanship. This warranty remains valid for five (5) years from the date of manufacture. The validity of this guarantee depends on the tire type and on the conditions described in the claim policy and adjustments document.

All tires are designed and manufactured to carry the loads at the appropriate speeds given in the European Tyre and Rim Technical Organisation (ETRTO) standards.

Sizes of tire and rim should correspond to each other. The rim should be to ETRTO standards and free from defects with all applicable components being used. The rim should also equal or exceed the load capacity of the tire.

Industrial, solid tires should not exceed an average speed of 5km/h at an average load of 75% of the maximum load.

Industrial Pneumatic tires should not exceed an average speed of 10km/h at an average load of 75% of the maximum load.

Normal and moderate use is considered as long as no foreign materials are destroying the tire and as long as braking, accelerating and steering forces are within the normal driving conditions.

If warranty analysis shows a tire has failed under guarantee, Dawg Pound Tires will make an allowance against the purchased price towards the purchase of a new tire relative to the unused portion of the tread on the defective tire. The cost of transportation, service and sales tax already paid will be borne by the owner. In the case of tires out of a dealer’s
immediate area, please submit the following required pictures: photo of problem area circled, photo of DOT/Serial number, photo of tread design and photo of side wall of tire. Along with the photos, send date of purchase and other pertinent information. Tires must be held until written release or credit is given.

Dawg Pound Tires does not warrant against consequential or incidental damage arising from a defective tire.
